How to Make Mandelscotti

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda.
  3. In a separate bowl, cream together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the almond extract.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Stir in the chopped almonds.
  6. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
  8. Remove from oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes.
  9. Reduce oven temperature to 300°F (150°C).
  10. Using a sharp knife, carefully slice each cookie lengthwise into two pieces. Arrange the biscotti cut-side down on the baking sheet.
  11. Bake for another 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp.
  12. Remove from oven and let cool completely on a wire rack before serving.
